Planting and Care

Plant in a sunny location with well-drained soil, keeping the tree at the same depth it grew in the nursery. Water deeply and consistently while avoiding saturated soil. Apply mulch around the base for moisture retention, keeping it away from the trunk. Fertilize in early spring and prune in late winter or early spring to shape the canopy, improve airflow and remove damaged growth.
